    I'm having a problem with my mail server. My setup is an Ubuntu 7.10 and completed the server with the help of The Perfect Server tutorial. For some reason i cannot recieve e-mails, and e-mails being sent is being bounced back. I've read through every forum and searched for answers but apparently my issue seems different from the others. Here is my E-mail that got bounced back.

    Code:
     This is the mail system at host server00.gnwebhosting.com.

    This e-mail account is for a client account made by ispconfig. I fixed outgoing mails but incoming e-mails get bounced. I've been working on this for days any help is appreciated.

    Update*

    I´ve found something interesting , in my mail bounceback it seems as though the server is looking for GN1_tek on m server domain name and not my clientś domain name. Hereś what my virtusertable looks like.
    Code:
    ###################################
    #
    # ISPConfig virtusertable Configuration File
    #         Version 1.0
    #
    ###################################
    [email protected]    GN1_tek
    [email protected]    GN1_tek
    [email protected]    GN1_tek
    [email protected]    GN1_tek
    [email protected]    GN1_tek
    [email protected]    GN1_tek
    [email protected]    GN1_test
    [email protected]    GN1_test
    [email protected]    GN1_test
    [email protected]    GN1_test
    [email protected]    GN1_test
    [email protected]    GN1_test

    From my understanding the server should be looking for the user(GN1_tek) in gfxncode.com instead of server00.gnwebhosting.com, the problem is i dont know how to change this.
    any help is appreciated.

    You're using capital letters in your usernames. Please change that, and it should work.

    ispconfig does that automatically, i actually changed the user prefix too [DOMAIN]_ but it gives the XXXX.com , is there a way to just have the User prefix as the domain name without the .com?

    Change GN1_ to gn1_.

    hey falko thanks a lot man. You should really write a book for linux newbies. The tutorials on this site are very accurate. Ispconfig does not use an installer for scripts like phpnuke,joomla, phpbb, etc.. , therefore i'm planning on using virtualmin. Would there be a how to with virtualmin or is it too easy to install?
